Job 42:3-6

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³ Who is this that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore I have spoken unwisely, and things that above measure exceeded my knowledge.

⁴ Hear, and I will speak: I will ask thee, and do thou tell me.

⁵ With the hearing of the ear, I have heard thee, but now my eye seeth thee.

⁶ Therefore I reprehend myself, and do penance in dust and ashes.
